Condensed
Matter and Other States
of Mind- A
Collection of poems by
Douglas A. Fowler " The average density of the universe is something
like
0.0000000000000000000000000001 kilograms per cubic meter (10-28 kg/m3).
One cubic meter of granite weighs some 2700 kilograms. This book's
density is 550 kg/m3. Your body weighs in at about 1100 kg/m3, a
density that is some 10 million trillion trillion times that of the
universe. Our condensation from the void would seem to be the
exception; not the rule." read more
No
War No More-Edited by Arya F. Jenkins
"We take a stand for peace,
independently and collectively, artistically and politically. In these
times it is imperative not to let slip through one's hands the
opportunity to say again and again, with whatever means possible,
creative and peaceful, that war is wrong, that love is the only path to
peace, justice and freedom, and that we will not veer from this path no
matter the consequences. This idea fed this project and I hope will
feed the minds and hearts of those who share in our efforts by reading
this book." read more
WNWG
Presents- "The WNWG is a
unique writing club based in Youngstown Ohio. Four authors and friends,
each
specializing in different genres and styles, have come together to form
the Wednesday Night Writing
Group. Together, we will take you on a
journey into the funny, twisted, macabre and at times surreal realm of
our imagination. Join us as we explore the mysterious, the magical, and
the utterly absurd as we take you on an adventure through our
oft-twisted mindscape." read more

Twentieth
annual NAP Invitational Salon of Small Works Exhibition; May 22 through
July 11 Artists reception and opening
Friday, May 22, 6-9pm
International Invitational Salon of Small Works
A salon-style show featuring over 230 wall works by artists from
around the country. This exhibition is always a highlight of our season
and is held every summer beginning in May. Each artist is represented
by one work limited to 200 square inches including frame. Videos have
become a growing attraction at the Invitational Salon. The show has
been exceptional every year. There are no fees, being a NAP member is
not a criteria.
Eastwood Mall in Niles has offered to host this CAPF project this fall/winter of 2009. The project will be a 15’x 20’ mosaic mural consisting of approximately 70 individual panels that when assembled will depict one large image (The Mona Lisa) representing artistic views of the community. Each panel will be the creation of local individual artists. Upon the installation of the mural CAPF will host a public grand opening gala inviting the press, introducing the artists, and giving recognition to donors. The efforts of this project will attract positive interest in our extended communities.
The mission of The Community Art Projects Foundation (CAPF) is
to raise awareness of the value of regional art
through involvement of adult area artists by
creating artistic works that will benefit our
community.
